Into the book
*
In order to dance the paddock, you must first be able to maintain your center of gravity and balance well and perform the solo dance sufficiently.
Because you need to be able to control your body and dance, you can dance in sync with your partner's center, distance, and breathing.
Therefore, this book is recommended to ballet majors and non-majors who have been consistently practicing ballet.
This book is organized by difficulty level, so it is better to learn it correctly from the first level, floor, rather than rushing to practice the later parts.
--- From "Before Entering Prologue Paddock Practice"
*
The more the woman's body rises from the ground and reaches towards the sky, and the more the distance between the man and the woman increases at the point where their bodies touch, the more difficult the paddock becomes.
If you learn the basics of support well from the practice room floor, you can easily learn the more difficult paddocks later and reduce the risk of injury.
And each technique and movement should be practiced so that it flows like water, not as a fragmented, isolated sequence.
--- From "Chapter 1: The Basics of Paddoe"
*
The basic posture of paddoe is for the man to stand behind the woman and support her waist with both hands.
At this time, the man holds the woman along her waistline, placing his thumb on the erector spinae muscle (erector spinae) that runs across the middle of the back and his palm on the waist.
--- From "Chapter 1: The Basics of Paddoe"
*
When a woman starts the tour in the 5th position wearing pointe shoes, she does so in the same way as when doing the battman suitnu, but this time the man uses both hands.
Hold the woman's waist and stand behind her.
--- From "Chapter 4: The Basics of Tours"
*
When performing the basic tour lang, the man holds the woman's waist with both hands and turns in a circle, the center of which is the tip of the woman's standing leg.
When turning a woman to the right, the man takes the first step with his left leg and places his right leg toward the woman's left heel.
When turning to the left, do the opposite.
--- From "Chapter 6 Tour Lang"
*
In paddocks, there are often jumping movements where a man lifts a female dancer's hand or wrist with one hand.
The lift where partners hold each other's hands with only one hand is a bit more difficult than the previously practiced two-handed lift or the man lifting the woman with both hands.
As the distance between partners increases, you must control the axis of your body so that it does not become disoriented when shifting the axis, and after shifting the axis, you must concentrate on not losing balance with your partner.

Publisher's Review
From basics to lifts,
A skill that builds up step by step
When we think of a paddock, we usually expect the man to perform a lifting motion, lifting the woman over his head.
However, when you first start doing paddocks, it is very likely that you will get injured if you lift the bar overhead all at once, so it is important to build a solid foundation.
So, the "Ballet Pas de Deux Class" is composed of three parts: starting with the basic movements, connecting movements, and supporting methods (Part 1), then various pas de deux movements performed on the floor, such as tours, tour langs, and axis tilting movements (Part 2), and then lifts from low heights to overhead (Part 3).
This structure is a system that gradually increases in difficulty and helps you learn step by step from the basics to the application.
By following the book's order, readers can master both the fundamentals and applications of paddocks without overdoing it or injuring themselves.
With detailed movement sequences and abundant photos
Learn more easily and completely
Each chapter of this book contains numerous detailed exercises.
In each practice method, the reader is provided with specific sequences for each movement, breathing, hands and feet, gaze, muscles, and other points to pay attention to, so that the reader can immediately understand how to complete the movement.
Additionally, many completed action photos are attached, so you can intuitively grasp parts that are difficult to understand through text alone.
Readers can check the flow of movements and finishing poses through detailed explanations and photos, and create more perfect movements by checking even the smallest details such as fingertips, toes, and gaze.
Includes descriptions of the scenes in the work
The only paddock workbook that teaches not only the movements but also the artistic meaning.
This book goes beyond a simple movement workbook and includes a separate section explaining how the pad de deux movements are used in actual ballet works.
It introduces pas de deux scenes from representative ballet works such as “Don Quixote,” “The Sleeping Beauty,” and “The Nutcracker,” and points out what kind of emotions the dancer conveys to the audience when performing the movements.
This allows readers to deeply understand not only how to perform the movements, but also their artistic meaning.
